Rocking

by Michal Maoz

Moving backward to the south then
Forward to the north
Feeling a sense of calm
Spreading from head to toe
Peace and quiet in my head
Is all I want to know.

Rocking slowly, humming a tune
Looking through a window
Staring at the moon
Wishing,
“If only there will come a day
When all this noise will go away.”

Rocking harder and harder
No peace and quiet
Now humming louder
Looking at the moon
Crying
Another wish went down the drain
Later I’ll try to rock again.

Michal’s book: "The Alien In Me: Poetry by a person with Asperger's Syndrome" is available online at www.aurtistic-spectrum.com/TheAlienInMe.
